Word, you got pics? Would love to see that shit.

Im going to set the record straight for a sec. The very first pic of the car was taken when I first got it. It had some Maaco $5 paint job and it looked good for a couple years. Around year 3 and 4 the clear started to fade bad and it really did look like epic shit. Although it doesnt look like it, the painting of the car did improve the way it looks (but not by much). I chose those colors for a couple reasons...1, I wanted a 2 tone, and I do like how it came out..just not with the blue. Originally it was gonna be "panda" but I decided against it last moment. 2. I thought the blue would come out better, lol. Fuck it, my mistake.
I didnt paint the front fenders or bumper because in the last few years, the car has been in a number of "hit and runs" and the front fenders and bumper are screwed. I have other fenders and bumper, just havent painted them and installed yet.



Yes, I know the car looks like hell, but it is going in the right direction. A build has to start somewhere..and even Ill admit its taken a step backwards more then forwards, but things are coming together nicely and it wont be long before I get an actual paint job. Suspension currently is haggard as hell (as anyone whos had an S12 can imagine) so thats step one right now. Once thats done, Ill go back to the looks of the car.

I can take constructive criticism. Yes, terrible platform. Looks like hell. Weak engine. Will never win races. Will never be faster then your car. Wont look as good. Whatever...Im building this car cuz driving it puts a smile on my face, but if your here to slander me JUST for driving an S12? Get out, your not wanted here.

Small update - A week ago my buddy brought me his old taillights. He tinted the orange turn signals to red. Not sure if I like it or not yet, but Ill rock it for now.

i have nothing against s12 owners


i just like to feel high-and-mighty by telling them:
1) to fuckoff
2) their cars suck
3) that they dont belong on our forum (dont waste the bandwidth)

Don't get me wrong, I really like S12's (coupe or hatch). I just hate pretty much everything about your execution.

Actually, the only thing I don't hate is that you have the optional lip and sideskirts.
